Using setaccount on addresses that are already listed in the Address Book. #329

The following:
```
bitcoind setaccount <unknown_address> label 
```
adds a new sending address in the Address Book of the GUI.

Using:
```
bitcoind setaccount <known_sending_address> label 
```
will rename the sending address listed in the Address Book. This is fine, but, in the same time, it will also pop up a new receiving address labeled with the old name. This behavior is quite confusing and I think it is not expected.
